Pet Portrait of a Labrador with Full Background

Dear Melanie, The portrait has arrived! I cannot adequately express my appreciation. I feel as though my sweet boy, Maximilian, is now here both in body and spirit. The resemblance is striking, the workmanship outstanding! You have captured his essence, heart, and character perfectly.

I am forever indebted to you for giving me the opportunity to keep him forever close. We all still miss him terribly. I hope to put the portrait on his website with both (due) credit and links as well as soon as possible. I’ll be in touch soon when that’s accomplished. I hope we can work together again soon for another portrait and some website hook-ups. Right now, I am just too overwhelmed…..Thanks Again and Kindest Regards, Carol

Carol sent me the email below when her portrait arrived.
